lyrics

To force the sea into stillness,
To set a course of our own,

Lay down our flags,
Gone is the need for empire,
To reach home again,
And in still waters to lay anchor

To hear revolution from our prison,
Through these walls our world change,

As in the streets,
Footsteps ring out,
Not the march of armies,

But to deny,
That we must go down
With our nation

Waves crash
Over our heads
We can only stay afloat
To act against those
That would fill our lungs
With the glory of war
